Sam really had his dinner at the town hall. Since it is a border town the in charge of the town are from military as well and this made things easier.
As Sam was eating, he looked at the town, it is just a little after sunset and a lot of people are packing their things to move.
Many of them didn't want to stay in this place as they felt a sense of belonging for their country. Generally, the cultivator wars are not so small and the citizens wouldn't have much choice. After all, humans are also an important resource in the eyes of the people at the top of the pyramid.
That is the reason the law is still in place and the people are given some rights.
Otherwise, this world would have already been in chaos.
But that is not the reason Sam let them go, he just felt that it is highly impossible for these people to be loyal for the new rule. From his experience, the emperor is not much of a great ruler and even the southern star Duke is not much.
